Aquaman justice league

At DC Comics’ publisher’s panel at WonderCon today, writer Scott Snyder laid out the parameters of his new take on the Justice League, beginning with May’s Justice League: No Justice miniseries. And those parameters include Darkseid, the evil god of Apokolips, joining the team. “What No Justice does is it sets us up with a whole new mission for the Justice League group,” Snyder told the WonderCon audience, “A whole new thesis and ideology for what the Justice League should be, called ‘New Justice.’” In Snyder’s Justice League, the League will once again face its rival supervillain organization, the Legion of Doom, and will operate from the Hall of Justice again, rather than the orbiting Watchtower satellite. That series, drawn by artists Jim Cheung (Avengers: The Children’s Crusade) and Jorge Jimenez (Super Sons), will kick off on June 6 with a renumbered line, starting with Justice League #1. The writer expressed his … [Read more...] about Darkseid is joining the Justice League

Last year's DC superhero team-up Justice League was a disappointment on many levels--from the terrible reviews and fan indifference to the woeful box office that lost Warner a reported $50 million. But there is one element that the movie will be remembered for--Superman actor Henry Cavill's mustache, which had to be removed by CGI. Now Justice League co-director Zack Snyder has himself poked fun at the terrible VFX that gave Cavill his bizarre top lip.Snyder posted an image of himself with a scruffy beard on the social media platform Vero, where he frequently posts pictures and interacts with fans. Snyder accompanied the image with a suggestion that he needs to shave, to which one fan inevitably replied "you could just remove it via CGI." Synder's reply? "We all know that doesn't work."Snyder had in fact quit the production of Justice League by the time the mustache issue came up. He left the movie in May 2017 following the tragic death of his daughter, with Avengers director Joss … [Read more...] about Justice League Co-Director Zack Snyder Mocks Superman’s Weird Mustache CGI

The Justice League is in hot water these days — the kind that even affects Aquaman. For the book’s current story arc, the writer Priest has introduced a rather pointed villain known as the Fan. The Fan, inspired by their heroism, has been with the Justice League from the beginning, . He’s also listened to all their communications and studied all their personalities and methods, and now he thinks that he knows more about what the Justice League should be than the Justice League does. He’ll ruin their public image in order to get them to bow to his wishes — and it’s not hard to see the parallels Priest is drawing to actual toxic fan relationships to creators. And in this week’s Justice League #39, the writer is dialing up that metatextual subtext even further. [Warning: This post contains spoilers for Justice League #39.] Thanks to the Fan’s control of the Justice League satellite’s teleportation system, some members of the … [Read more...] about This week’s Justice League has some unexpected DC movie cameos

New reports say that Zack Snyder was fired from Justice League, months before he publicly shared that he was no longer involved with the project. Entertainment reporter Josh Dickey is leaving the industry, and tweeted a series of links with some context about his time there. One of his claims was that Snyder didn’t leave the project voluntarily, but was instead fired from the film, according to unnamed sources. Collider is backing up Dickey’s tweet, reporting that Warner Bros. fired Snyder in January or February 2017 — months before Snyder announced he was stepping away from the project to deal with the personal matters after the death of his daughter. “I’d heard similar things from separate sources over the last year as well,” Collider’s Matt Goldberg wrote. “I also heard that Snyder’s rough-cut of the movie was ‘unwatchable’ (a word that jumped out at me because it’s rare you hear two separate sources use the … [Read more...] about Report: Zack Snyder was fired from Justice League (update)

Justice League finally brought together some of the mightiest superheroes in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) but to little applause. The half-baked release left a lot of people disappointed, but not Warner Bros. because it was already expecting to smell failure. According to a new report from Revenge of the Fans earlier today, the upper echelon at Warner Bros. was fully aware that Justice League would receive a lukewarm reception in theaters at best. This notion was apparently set in stone way before the premiere night but the entertainment division wanted to move on to its next projects and hence, basically dumped the movie into the wild. There was the option of delaying the release date but problems for Justice League ran deeper than any possible rectifications. Neither the Zack Snyder nor Joss Whedon cut managed to convince Warner Bros. to chalk out a remedy. The executives simply washed their hands off the project because they realized that no manner of plot-extensions would be … [Read more...] about Warner Bros.
